A tweet from @sureshnakhua was twisted according to “Times Now” ‘s whims and fancy and aired to substantiate their stand on their show “News hour Debate”.
Times Now's Fiasco-
On October 18th, 2010 a user named Suresh Nakhua tweeted to Times Now-
The twisted tweet which falsely showcased @sureshnakhua as “Congress supporter” was:
“Congress should not lose its focus by worrying about Modi”
Mr Suresh was agitated by this twisted tweet fiasco and emailed Times Now, with proof substantiating his claims, and demanded public apology.
Mr Hector Kenneth, Senior Editor,Times Now, replied to Suresh’s five repeated emails after seven days,citing:
“There was another user with the feedback that was wrongly ascribed to you”.
Mr Suresh did not buy this reason. He verified with the list of tweets sent to Newshour on 18/10/2010 between 0913hrs and 2358hrs, and again, emailed TIMES NOW denying their claims.
Mr Hector continued to be adamant,but later gave-in and admitted to the fiasco.
